April 12, 2011 — Waltham, Mass. — Business information provider ZoomInfo (www.zoominfo.com) applauded a privacy bill introduced today by Senators John Kerry and John McCain.

March 16, 2011 — Waltham, Mass. — Your name, the name of your employer, your job title — and your business phone number and business email address — should be available to anyone. That’s the main point of a "Business Information Manifesto" published today by business information provider ZoomInfo (www.zoominfo.com).

With the U.S. Senate beginning hearings today and no less than seven pieces of legislation circulating Congress on online information privacy, ZoomInfo issued the manifesto to make a distinction between business, personal and behavioral information. The company said the distinction is necessary to protect the health of business-to-business (B2B) companies and thereby the economy.
